We have natural gas heat. In my quest for the perfect generator I drool on the Generac natural gas models. They switch on in seconds and off when the power is back on and run off of natural gas so no gasoline to mess with. If we had a lot of power problems I would have one. Since we have rare problems I don't have one.
We had a power failure yesterday that was just a few minutes. My battery backups for the modem and router keep it up for long enough to last until the power came back on. I got a text and email from every sensor on my alarm system that the power went off and was on battery power. The a text and email from each sensor that the battery was getting low, then a text and email the power was back on then a text and email from every sensor that the battery was charged again. I am going to call the alarm company and explain that it a bit of overkill.
